Trooper Rocks New York Media with Tales from Clinton's Crypt Thursday September 16, 2:03 AM newsmax.com
From an early morning appearance on the Howard Stern Show to a taped interview on Fox News Channel twelve hours later, recently retired Arkansas State Trooper Larry Patterson took New York by storm on Wednesday, revealing new details about his six year stint guarding Arkansas' first family.
Much of bodyguard Patterson's account is unknown to most Americans, thanks to the President's "real" political bodyguards, the nation's mainstream press. The trooper says he tried to share some of the information with reporters back in 1993, but most weren't interested.
Even shockmeister Stern and his jaded K-Rock entourage seemed surprised by some of what Patterson had to say, as the 32-year law enforcement veteran told listeners one startling insider account after another.
How much did Hillary know about her husband's Arkansas sexcapades? Stern wanted to know.
"When Bill was coming on to some woman," claimed Patterson, "I've heard Hillary tell him, 'Bill, zip up your pants. You can't do anything here.'"
"Wow, wow," replied the incredulous shock jock.
"He's hornier than me," the king of radio raunch observed, after Patterson explained how Clinton would inquire about the security staff's sex life.
Patterson's interrogation on Clinton's personal peccadillos gave way to an exploration of one of the most vexing political questions of the 1990s, during the Clinton bodyguard's afternoon appearance on Sean Hannity's WABC radio show.
Why did Ross Perot re-enter the presidential race in the final months of the 1992 campaign, thereby tipping the election to Bill Clinton?
The former Arkansas state policeman doesn't claim to know what the Texas billionaire's actual motivation was. But he told Hannity that Clinton and the Bush-a-phobic Perot chatted by phone some "25 to 30" times in mid-1992, an unusual amount of personal contact for two supposed political rivals.
From WABC radio the Arkansas trooper made his way to Fox News Channel's mid-Manhattan studios, to tape an appearance on "Hannity & Colmes" that will run as soon as Hurricaine Floyd permits the resumption of regular Fox programming.
Patterson's first full day of press interviews since NewsMax.com released his story ended on Alan Colmes' WEVD late night radio show, as Patterson's long embargoed account continued to spice up the ever-simmering pot of Clinton allegations. |
